[Why Korea] Why Did Korea Make AI a National Strategy?

  Recently, the Korean government unveiled its vision of becoming one of the world's top three AI nations . At first, it sounded like just another government initiative. But the more I looked into it, the more I realized it was something much bigger. It wasn't simply an AI policy. It was a strategy for Korea's future. So why did Korea decide to make AI a national priority? AI Isn't Creating a New Industry. It's Transforming Existing Ones. Korea has never been a country rich in natural resources.

But AI is beginning to change how those industries compete. Cars are no longer judged only by engine performance. Software continuously updates vehicles, and AI increasingly assists drivers.

  Not long ago, I was sitting in a café when I noticed something. A student was organizing an assignment with ChatGPT. At the next table, an office worker was asking Gemini to summarize meeting notes. A little farther away, a designer was creating video concepts with Kling.

[Why Korea] When Did Koreans Start Questioning Their Cosmetics Brand?

이미지
  It was quite a shocking moment. In the early 2000s, something unexpected happened in Korea's cosmetics market. Back then, most people believed one simple rule: Good skincare had to be expensive. Luxury department store brands were trusted without much question. Higher price meant higher quality. Or so everyone thought. Then a new wave of affordable cosmetics appeared. People looked at the price... and couldn't believe it. "Wait... this quality at this price?" The market was surprised. But the real change came afterward. People stopped trusting brands—and started checking for themselves. Before, buying skincare was simple. If it was a famous brand, sold in a department store, and expensive, it must be good. But suddenly, people started asking a different question. "Is there really that much of a difference?" They tried products themselves. Compared one product against another. Shared their experiences with friends. Little by little,...
